HOW DO I CHANGE MY CALLER ID?

The caller ID is set to whatever the account name is.
It can only be changed if the whole account name is changed.

oh okay thanks!

 

The thing is, I don’t want people to see what my full name is whenever I call them. It’s a privacy issue. Is there anyway to just keep it as my number or no caller ID?

Yea, if you remove the “Outbound Calling Name Display” add-on from your account then it will just show your phone number when you dial someone.

So on my add-on page, it says I can add the outbound calling feature, but I already have that feature which is why I want to remove it. It doesn’t give me the option to remove it, only to add it, which is weird because I already have it. See the picture below:

You’ll want to login, click “manage plan and add-ons”, then click “manage add-ons”, then click the x to the left of the add-on you want to remove.

THANKS!

So what is “Call display restrict”?  I understand this restricts your number and name from being displayed on someone else’s phone. But is this a feature I can turn on and off whenever I want based on who I’m calling, or is it always on and literally every single person I call will not be able to see my name/number?

It’s a complete block, not meant as something to be turned on/off every call
